IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
To prevent personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions
and warnings.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be
followed including the following:
Read all instructions, including these important safeguards and the care and use
instructions in this manual.
Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Focus Electrics may
cause injuries.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug. Do not operate when
the appliance is not working properly or when it has been damaged in any
manner. For service information see warranty page.
Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.
For household use only.
To prevent fire, personal injury or property damage, read and follow all
instructions and warnings.
FIRE PRECAUTIONS
Do not use around or near flammable materials. A fire may occur if the toaster is
covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and
the like, when in operation.
Do not leave appliance unattended when in use.
Failure to clean crumb tray may result in fire hazard.
Do not toast oversized foods in toaster. Only toast foods that fit loosely in toaster
slots.
Avoid toasting foods with frostings or fillings that may run or that are made with
open fillings. Frostings and fillings can catch fire.

Remove any plastic wrapping from food before toasting.
Unplug toaster if fire or smoke is observed.
3
To prevent electrical shock, personal injury or property damage, read and
follow all instructions and warnings.
ELECTRICITY PRECAUTIONS
To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric
parts in water or other liquids.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
Do not operate when the appliance is not working properly or when it has been
damaged in any manner. For service information see warranty page.
Do not use this appliance outdoors.
Always assure the toaster is OFF (press ‘Cancel’ button) and unplug the
appliance from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may
be used if care is exercised in their use. While use of an extension cord is not
recommended, if you must use one, the marked electrical rating of the
detachable power-supply cord or extension cord should be at least as great as
the electrical rating of the appliance. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the
extension cord should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord. The cord should be
arranged so that it will not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled by children or tripped over.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To
reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug
in any way.
Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or
extension cord feels hot.
Oversized foods, metal foil packages, or metal utensils must not be inserted in a
toaster as they may involve a risk of fire or electric shock.
Do not attempt to dislodge food when toaster is plugged in.
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch
electrical parts involving a risk of electric shock.
To avoid circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the
same circuit at the same time.
4
To prevent burns or other personal injuries to children, read and follow all
instructions and warnings.
PRECAUTIONS FOR USE AROUND CHILDREN
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Do not allow children to operate or be near the toaster, as the outside surfaces
are hot during use.
Do not allow cord to hang over any edge where a child can reach it.
To prevent burns, personal injury or property damage, read and follow all
instructions and warnings.
HEAT PRECAUTIONS
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs provided.
Allow to cool before cleaning or removing crumb tray.
Carefully remove toasted food from the toaster. Some of the appliance surfaces
are hot during and after use.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
USING YOUR TOASTER
Before using for the first time, wipe
outside of toaster with a damp soapy cloth,
and then dry thoroughly. Operate the
toaster the first time without any food in the
toaster slots and with the browning setting
set to darkest setting (dial turned clockwise
to the furthest point). This will eliminate any
residual manufacturing oils.
5
1. Place toaster on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge or
flammable materials. Plug cord into 120 volt AC outlet only.
2. Place up to two slices of bread, bagels, English muffins, pastry slices (1 piece in
each slot), etc., into bread slots. Select toast color setting. The darkness
control is identified by small dots on the extreme left (lightest color), then
increasing in size to the largest dot on the far right (darkest color).
3. Press the toast lever down until it locks into place. Toasting cycle will
automatically begin. Toaster must be plugged in for toast lever to lock in place.
Toast will pop up and toaster will turn off when the selected color is reached.
The toast cycle can be stopped any time by pressing the cancel button. Note:
Do not attempt to dislodge food when toaster is plugged in.
4. Unplug the cord from wall outlet when not in use and allow to cool before cleaning.
Bagel Setting: The bagel setting automatically turns off the inside toasting elements.
The cut-side of bagel will be toasted when placed toward the outside of the toaster. To
use, press toast lever down and press the bagel button. The bagel and toast/cancel
indicator lights will both illuminate when activated.
Defrost Setting: The defrost setting will take the bread/frozen pastry from frozen to
toasted in one step. To use, press toast lever down and press the defrost button.
The defrost and toast/cancel indicator lights will both illuminate when activated.
Note: The above settings can only be activated after the toast lever is pushed down
and locked. If you are defrosting a frozen bagel, all three settings will be activated
and all three lights will illuminate.
Some smoke and/or odor may occur upon first heating due to the release of
manufacturing oils – this is normal
Some expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling – this
is normal.
CLEANING YOUR TOASTER
1. Unplug toaster from outlet and allow to cool before cleaning. Slide crumb tray
out from under toaster, empty and wipe clean with damp cloth if necessary.
Replace the crumb tray. Note: Failure to clean crumb tray regularly may result
in fire hazard. As a safeguard, be sure to re-insert the crumb tray to prevent
crumbs from falling onto countertop to avoid any other potential fire risks.
2. Wipe the outside surfaces of toaster with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly. Do
not use any metal or abrasive scouring pads or cleansers on any toaster
surfaces. To clean the inside of toaster, turn toaster upside down over sink and
shake crumbs free.
3. Wrap cord around clips on underside of toaster for storage if desired.
